LUMI EXPERIENCES

As the world’s premier cross country ski travel company, Lumi Experiences offers boutique trips that introduce travelers to winter cultures where nordic skiing is a part of everyday life — from Sweden to Slovenia. It’s a ski vacation like no other.

Lumi Experiences was founded by cross country ski Olympian Garrott Kuzzy, who competed in NENSA events throughout college in Vermont and while coaching for Mansfield Nordic and at the Green Mountain Valley School.

Along with a fun-loving team of local trip leaders, Garrott shares his passion for skiing and travel with people who want to experience snowy villages, crackling fires, forest gnomes and warm apple strudel.

After a week with Lumi Experiences you will be physically healthier, mentally calmer and totally invigorated. Our guests rave about their expert trip leaders, wholesome meals, comfortable accommodations and local libations poured and savored often. That’s what it’s all about!

 

Lumi x Julia Kern

Lumi Experiences is proud to partner with US Cross Country Ski Team star Julia Kern as her official headgear sponsor. This commitment helps support Julia, who grew up skiing in the NENSA system, as she races on the world stage. In 2027, you can cheer for Julia trailside on Lumi’s Tour de Ski, Holmenkollen World Cup and Falun World Championship trips.

Lumi x Skida Hats

For the past 7 years, Lumi has partnered with NENSA sponsor Skida to provide custom hats to guests on all Lumi trips. Skida’s founder Corinne Prevot joined Lumi on her trip to the Olympic Games in 2026.

 
 
 
“I loved skiing on trails with scenery evolving ever more beautiful around each turn. The trip leaders both exceeded my expectations, drawing out my adventurous spirit. I especially enjoyed sledding in the Italian Dolomites and the Schnapps tour in Austria!!”
